Get a keyfob?First off this is not a bashing thread This is about security of accounts.
Ever play WoW? I abashedly admit that I did for 3 years. However there is one thing that they did that was brilliant.
If you logged out from one IP address. Then someone tried to log in say, the next state/country ocean away they would automatically lock your account until you went in and changed your password. There was no investigation and no backlash to honest players. Except that you might lose some items or money that were loaded off your character while your account was accessed.
It's certainly a more sound tactic than suspending your customers for nothing.
Se needs to find something like this to do instead of banning their paying customers to the point that anyone who heard about this sort of thing would completely avoid the game. It certainly makes more sense than letting someone log in to an account that is NA based from China or where ever these bastards hail from. It may be a hassle if it happens repeatedly but I would rather this then locked out of my account for the next 12-18 days for something I didn't do.
No seriously. I am sick of people saying 'SE should do this' 'SE should do that' when they already have done something.
